Talks with Sri Aurobindo


Volume 1

10 December 1938 – 14 January 1941

24 August 1940

Purani: Spain is not very eager to join Italy and Germany, it seems.

Sri Aurobindo: No, this British resistance has removed many dangers.

Purani: Spain is getting financial help from Britain for reconstruction of her Government, and she must be afraid of a British blockade if she joins Hitler.

Sri Aurobindo: Yes. To get help from Hitler in financial matters is the least thing possible.

Evening

Sri Aurobindo: The Governor has warned Baron against Schomberg, saying that he is a scoundrel and will try to do harm to him. The charge against Baron is that he mixed with revolutionaries.

Purani: Meaning us?

Sri Aurobindo: Who else could it be? This Viceroy seems to be kanpatla (credulous). What Schomberg said he quietly believed and acted on it, and now what the Bengal Governor says he believes! That is why his conferences are not successful.

Purani: Yes, he is influenced by the opinion of the Civil Service.

Sri Aurobindo: This Bengal Governor seems to be a man of will.
